Maureens Ramblings
A few months ago, the Church of England won an award that
recognised that we do good funerals. I think we do. I think it is
something our church is very good at doing. It has had a lot of
prac9ce over the centuries!
When I was ordained as a priest the Bishop said with all Gods
people, you are to tell the story of Gods love and minister to the sick
and prepare the dying for their death. It has been my privilege to
come alongside many people who are facing their nal journey and
with the ones who are leA behind to grieve and mourn. It has been
my privilege to lead hundreds of funeral services, oAen called
Services of Remembrance and Thanksgiving, for those who have been part of the communi9es where I
have served. The funeral liturgy holds a structure in which we can move through our emo9ons,
interwoven with the story of a persons life and achievements. It allows us to acknowledge we are in
the presence of God, held in his love and supported by prayer.
But so oAen these days, people dont come to church for the funeral service. Maybe it is because they
see themselves as not church-goers or religious and that therefore they have to go to the Crem. for the
service and that it should be secular led with no men9on of God. But whether you believe or not,
come to church or not, all who live in Poulshot are welcome to have a service in St. Peters Church. The
services are handled sensi9vely and pastorally to recognise each individual situa9on. At a church
service there are no 9me constraints and the atmosphere of centuries of history, faith and worship
hold us in our grief. The past, present and future tense is used in the service, as the uniqueness of that
loved ones life is shared, in their life story, in poems, in tributes from family members and friends,
alongside signicant pieces of music and songs.
I recently visited a bereaved family who declared themselves as not religious. As we talked I learned a
li`le of the story of their mum. She did not go to church but she had been bap9sed. She had talked
oAen of her loved ones who had died and her hope that they were in heaven. She had been unsure of
what that meant and had a wavering faith in the divine and eternity. But she was not an atheist. She
felt that there was something there. What may have ended up as a non-religious funeral, with no
prayers or blessings, turned into an upliAing service. Her son contacted me aAerwards, to tell me how
having a vicar there, in robes, at the front, put their minds at rest, and added something to the service
that might have been lost otherwise. It made it all seem right and proper, he said, 'a bit like a church
wedding as opposed to a hotel one.
The ritual of gathering, in a holy space, with family, friends and the vicar, enables us to celebrate and
be thankful for those we love. But it also enables us to express the depth of our grief at the loss of our
loved one. There are moments of intense poignancy within the church-led funeral service, with those
familiar and comfor9ng words, which enables the pain to be felt and acknowledged within a safe and
peaceful environment. Yes, the church does do good funerals.
The Revd. Maureen Allchin. Rector
